Desire Under the Elms

"Desire under the Banyan tree" was held at the Cabot farm in the countryside of New England. People in the play are low on social ladders, not members of aristocrats and royal family. The theme is not a myth, conspiracy is serious and complicated. And the whole script has evidence of cruel and cruel treatment of individuals in the Puritan society. Play shows unity of behavior, events follow a logical order. The play is based on family struggle owned by greed and revenge.

The early 20th century drama produced seeds of realism in the second half of the nineteenth century, but sometimes the drama experimented with the expectations of the audience. The desire of Eugene O'Neill under the Banyan tree is a tragedy characterized by ordinary citizens rather than nobility. The play is a tragic figure of farmers in New England. Arthur Miller's salesman's death brought terrible necessity to the commercial salesman's world. As with many other tragedies of the 20th century, the important thing is that the lives of the general people may be as tragic as the tragedies of Oedipus.

Tragic: There is a hybrid type. In our time, unless the drama imitates Greek or Shakespeare's tragedy, it is often regarded as a tragedy, not a tragedy, like O'Neal's desire under the Banyan tree. Our time likes comedies that people still laugh, but the majority of the strict comedy drama is bubbles, temporary entertainment and will not last long. Tragedy requires a specific view of the world. Aristotle pointed to his poem that the hero of the tragedy or the heroine should be a born aristocrat, possibly a king like Edips or a princess like Antigone. This is usually interpreted as meaning that tragic heroes and heroines should be more open, bold and spiritual than ordinary people.
